Subject: QOTD for Sunday, May 5, 2024

The Following Quotation is from Written In My own Heart’s Blood by Diana Gabaldon. Copyright 2015 All Rights Reserved. Chapter 10 The Descent Of The Holy Ghost Upon A Reluctant Disciple


“Jesus, Mary and Bride - not now,” he said between his teeth, and meant it somewhere between prayer and curse. He’d felt something small wrench or tear in his back when he’d hit John Grey, but in the heat of the moment it hadn’t seemed important. It’s hadn’t troubled him much walking - he’d barely noticed, with all there was on his mind - but now that he’d sat for a time and the muscles had chilled . . .

He tried rising, carefully, collapsed again. Bent sweating over the table with his fists clenched, he said a number of things in Gaelic that weren’t at all prayerful.

“Is thee quite well, Friend?” The woman of the house leaned near, peering nearsightedly at him in concern.
